Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Put all the ingredients for the water-oil dough into a basin, mix and knead into a smooth dough, cover with plastic wrap and rest for 30 minutes (if the indoor temperature is too high, please put it in the refrigerator)

   

2. 2 If you are patient, the first step is to knead the dough into a transparent glove film, which is not easy to break. This way the dough will have a better puffing effect! Knead the glove film into shape through the process of kneading, throwing, and beating.

   

3. 3 Put all the pastry ingredients into a basin, mix and knead into a pastry dough, cover with plastic wrap and rest for 25 minutes (this time is about the same as the time for the water-oil dough to rest)

   

4. 4 Divide the water-oil dough and puff pastry dough into 4 equal portions and knead them into round balls with your hands

   

5. 5 Take a piece of dough and press it flat, put a piece of dough on top

   

6. 6 Rub the oil skin upwards with your hands to tighten the oil skin seal

   

7. 7 With the seal facing up, pinch it tightly and cover with plastic wrap if not in use for the time being

   

8. 8 With the dough seal facing up, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into an oval shape

   

9. 9 Roll it up from top to bottom

   

10. 10 Roll out all the dough and cover the ones not being used with plastic wrap

    

11. 11 Take one, place it vertically, and press it flat

    

12. 12 Roll it out again into an oval shape from top to bottom, and roll it up from top to bottom

    

13. 13 After everything is rolled out, cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes (if the indoor temperature is too high, please put it in the refrigerator)

    

14. 14 Cut the small roll in the middle and divide it into two

    

15. 15 The cut surface will have a beautiful pattern. Flatten it with the cut surface facing up and roll it into a skin

    

16. 16 Roll out the skin and wrap it with red bean filling

    

17. 17 Rub it up with your hands, tighten it, and pinch it to seal

    

18. 18 Seal side down and place on baking sheet

    

19. 19 Preheat the oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes and bake the matcha red bean cake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes
